FSN basketball games

Just last week the NBA basketball games coming in on the FSN channels(444 thru 453 approx.) are all distorted(scrambled I guess). I get them though, but not usable. These are Dish channels. The other channels are ok(not scrambled). I really want to watch those games. Something has changed. I have been watching them ok until now. My receiver is a Coolsat 7000.

Any comments on this subject would be appreciated.

You could have bad weather causing this problem or your dish has moved You can try a factory default and setup your birds and rescan.Scanning sats is best done when skies are clear.Let us know.

You can also see what TP's those channels are using and do a TP scan. You will get a few duplicate channel but it should make those channels work.

You hit it right on the head. My dish had moved slightly. I didn't think that one set of channels would be affected by weak signal when others were ok. So I learned something. Thank you much. Your insight fixed my problem.
